## Overview of Video Translation

Video translation enables converting an existing video project from its original language into another language to reach broader audiences and improve accessibility.

***

## Accessing the Project for Translation

1. Begin by logging into the **Demokraft AI** portal.
2. Navigate to the studio dashboard.
3. Select the specific video project you want to translate.

Selecting a project directs you to the video editor where the existing content is available for further actions.

## Opening the Translated Project

Click the **"Translation Ready"** notification to open the newly generated project version in your selected language.

The translated script will now appear within the editor's script panel. Note that the original audio remains unchanged at this stage; the system does not automatically overwrite or regenerate the audio track in the new language. This intentional design gives you full control over when and how your audio and visual outputs are updated.

## Editing and Generating Audio in the New Language

This workflow provides maximum flexibility to review and edit the translated text before synthesizing a voiceover:

1. **Review Text:** Make custom textual adjustments directly to the generated translation or enhance the phrasing using built-in AI assistant features.
2. **Select Voice:** Once the script is finalized, choose an AI voice profile from the available options optimized for your target language.
3. **Synthesize:** Click **Generate Voice** to render the new audio matching the updated script.
4. **Verify:** Upon completion, preview the timeline to verify the synchronization of the new voice-over with your project transitions.

## Additional Customizations and Document Review

Further customize your project to optimize localization accuracy and visual impact:

* Adjust timeline elements such as background graphics, slide images, or layout styling.
* Add contextually appropriate background music loops.
* Review the text document automatically generated by the system in the target language to check translation alignment and localization consistency across all outputs.

## Exporting or Continuing Editing

When the translated video fully meets your requirements, click **Export** to compile the final video file for external distribution, downloading, or publishing. Alternatively, you can save your draft and continue making visual and script updates as needed to refine the video further for your audience.
